So You Want A Havanese Puppy?

Article Title: So You Want A Havanese Puppy?
Author: Fiona A Kelly

The Havanese is a cute and compact dog, weighing in anywhere
from seven to fifteen pounds and standing at a height of eight
to eleven inches. This dog is generally sweet natured and eager
to please, making it a good choice for most families. With its
small size, these puppies can work well in an apartment as well
as a house, as long as they are walked regularly. Because of its
intelligence, the Havanese puppy will often be relatively easy
to train.

However, a Havanese puppy isn't necessarily right for everyone,
although that might be easy to forget when you are gazing upon
one of those fuzzy little faces. A Havanese puppy is a precious
and enticing sight indeed, but never rush into the purchase of
one of these dogs. If you are considering the addition of one of
these adorable pups to your family, it is important that you
educate yourself about the care of the Havanese puppy before you
bring one into your home.

The first step in selecting a Havanese puppy is to find a
reputable breeder. It is very important to purchase your dog
from a breeder rather than a pet shop, so that you know that you
are getting a dog without unknown health or temperament risks. A
good breeder will be able to provide you with paperwork showing
your dog's lineage and presenting any possible genetic problems
that might be in the line. A reputable breeder will be more
interested in improving the Havanese breed and finding good
homes for his animals, rather than simply turning a profit on
the dogs.

Once you have found the breeder that you want to work with, you
will be faced with a litter of adorable Havanese puppies from
which you must choose one. This is no easy task, but you can
help yourself with the decision by knowing ahead of time what
gender and characteristics that you are looking for. By letting
your breeder know what you have in mind with your Havanese
puppy, he should be able to help you select the perfect pup from
the litter for your family.

So you've chosen your breed, found your breeder and selected
your Havanese puppy. Now that adorable little creature needs a
name. But which name will work the best for your dog? There are
some guidelines that you can use to help determine the best
title for your new puppy. First, find a name that is short and
easy to pronounce. This will make training time infinitely
easier for both you and your dog. You can choose your name from
a favorite cartoon character or you can check out the lists of
most popular Havanese puppy names on the Internet. Scruffy
currently tops that list. Finally, you can watch your puppy for
a day or two, to see if there is a name that seems to suit his
personality and temperament.

No matter what you name your Havanese puppy, the two of you are
about to embark on a journey of enjoyment and companionship that
will last many years. This is why it is so important to choose
your breeder and your dog carefully, to ensure that you find the
right pet for your family over the long haul.
